🔥 YOU CAN’T BLAME SHOTA! | Chicago Cubs Central

The Cubs just dropped a 7-5 decision to the Cincinnati Reds on August 30, and Shōta Imanaga is going to take a LOT of the heat for it. But on Chicago Cubs Central, I’m telling you: YOU CAN’T BLAME SHOTA!

Imanaga went 5 innings, allowing 8 hits, 6 runs and 3 home runs while striking out 4. Héctor Rodríguez, Dane Myers and Tyler Stephenson all took him deep as Cincinnati grabbed control of the game. 

So why am I defending Shota after THAT performance? 

 I’m breaking down exactly what happened against Cincinnati.
 Why Imanaga shouldn’t be the only one taking the blame.
 Who REALLY deserves the criticism?
 Is this a Shota problem… or a MUCH BIGGER Cubs problem?
 And what does this mean for the Cubs heading into September?

Pete Crow-Armstrong did his part with TWO home runs, including a ninth-inning blast that brought Chicago within two, but it wasn’t enough as the Reds took the series. 

 Was Shota Imanaga really the reason the Cubs lost?
